Chapter 4 Tamagawa Apartments
Gou Ming followed the map navigation, carefully avoided the police's booth, and advanced towards the Yuchuan Apartment.
It’s not that he wants to sneak in. It’s already past 12 o’clock, but he is wearing a high school uniform and swaying outside. The slightly more responsible patrol officer will stop him and interrogate him.
In order to avoid trouble, Gou Ming could only avoid the guard booth as carefully as a thief.
As for surveillance, he was not very scared. After all, he was a good citizen and was not going to kill and set fire.
When Gou Ming arrived outside the Yuchuan apartment, his cell phone showed that it was almost one o'clock in the morning.
Gou Ming looked at the 18-story apartment in front of him and couldn't help but frown.
Judging from the decoration outside and the location, this is undoubtedly a high-end apartment building.
However, I don't know what happened, but the entire apartment building looks very desolate.
Even though the nearby apartment building is almost 1:00 a.m., there are still many windows with lights on, and pedestrians are passing by at the door from time to time.
However, in this building... Gou Ming observed that many pedestrians even deliberately walked around the door of Yuchuan Apartment.
The entire Yuchuan apartment is like a life-forbidden area in the city.
Gou Ming looked up and looked up. In addition to the two houses on the second and third floors, the lights were on, from the fourth floor to the top floor, it was pitch black. From a distance, the entire apartment building looked like a huge tombstone standing in the dark night.
Gou Ming tightened the strap of his schoolbag and slowly walked into Yuchuan's apartment.
As soon as he walked into the lobby on the first floor of the apartment, Gou Ming suddenly felt a cold chill coming.
You should know that it is early spring, the temperature is suitable, neither cold nor hot, and it is most suitable for outings.
But when Gou Ming walked into Yuchuan Apartment, the temperature suddenly dropped, and he felt like he had entered the morgue of a hospital.
Gou Ming subconsciously held the crowbar in his schoolbag with his back hand and observed it vigilantly.
This Yuchuan apartment seems to have been out of maintenance for a long time, full of dilapidation everywhere, and the air is filled with a nauseous smell of things spoiled and rotten and mixed with urine.
There is a row of mail cabinets against the left side of the hall, but many of the cabinet doors of the mail cabinets were forcibly pried open, the paint on the surface was covered with scratches, and famous brands were thrown on the ground, and the walls behind were painted with all kinds of strange graffiti.
There are six lamps installed on the ceiling of the hall, but only two have light bulbs, and they also flash and look like they have poor contact.
There are two elevators on the right side, one of which has a door open and a bench is stuck at the door, which seems to be broken, and the other elevator happens to be parked on the 14th floor.
The elevator doors are also covered with messy graffiti.
"Young man, what are you looking for?"
Just as Gou Ming looked around, a voice suddenly came.
Gou Ming was startled, and a short figure appeared in front of him at some point.
It was an old man wearing old clothes, hunched figure and wrinkled face. He was carrying his hands on his back, and seemed to be holding a bunch of keys in his hands.
A pair of cloudy eyes stared at Gou Ming's face, making him feel uncomfortable all over.
Gou Ming noticed that a door opposite the hall was opened, and the old man seemed to have come out from there, and the room seemed to be the duty room of the apartment security guard.
Gou Ming couldn't help but look weird. With such a security guard, even if anything happens in the building, it will not work.
"Young man, have you heard me?"
Just as Gou Ming looked at the old man, the old man increased his voice.
Gou Ming had an idea.
"The old man is really embarrassed. I am looking for a house to live in. I saw online that the apartment has good facilities, convenient transportation, and very cheap prices, so let's take a look."
Gou Ming's words actually cannot stand the scrutiny, so who can come to see the house at midnight?
The old man seemed to care about his intentions at all, but just half-closed his turbid eyes and reminded him meaningfully.
"Young man, if you want to rent a house, go somewhere else, it's not clean."
Gou Ming's heart moved. The old man who acted as a security guard seemed to know something, so he hurriedly asked.
"Sir, why do you say that? Has anything happened here before?"
The old man seemed unwilling to say more, so he waved his hand and reminded him.
"Young man, I'm doing it for your own good. This apartment is very dangerous, especially after twelve o'clock in the evening. Never run above the tenth floor."
Then the old man turned around, made almost no sound, and walked towards the duty room.
Under the dim light, the old man's shadow shines.
"Old sir!"
Gou whined.
The old man paused for a moment and did not look back.
"Remember, especially on the 14th floor, don't go up there."
Leaving this sentence, the old man walked into the duty room and closed the door.
The hall became quiet again.
Gou Ming looked at the door of the duty room and showed a wry smile on his face.
The old man obviously knew something and persuaded him very kindly.
Unfortunately, he had no choice.
Gou Ming came to the still running elevator with a determined look on his face and pressed the upward button.
The disrepaired elevator immediately made a mechanical roar, and the red ‘14’ on the display screen on it immediately turned into ‘13’, and then it decreased in turn.
Not long after, the elevator door opened and Gou Ming walked in.
The moment the elevator door was closed, Gou Ming vaguely heard a sigh from the duty room.
When the elevator door was closed, Gou Ming couldn't help but cover his nose.
A disgusting smell rushed over, and the closed environment made various smells more intense.
Gou Ming covered his nose with one hand, suppressed his disgust and began to look at the entire elevator.
His eyes slid past the yellow dry marks in the corner of the elevator and a pool of vomit surrounded by flies.
Discarded newspapers, fruit cores, cans and other debris were thrown on the uneven floor.
The other three walls in the elevator were equipped with a large mirror, including the closed elevator door. They painted weird graffiti with spray paint of various colors, with words such as "xx debt repayment" and "go to die".
Gou Ming could only see his blurry figure through the gaps in the graffiti.
bite!
At this moment, a crisp and pleasant ringtone rang, and then the elevator door opened.
Gou Ming thought he had arrived at the 14th floor, so he subconsciously wanted to walk out, but found that the display screen was showing ‘10’.
What's even more strange is that after the elevator door opened, there was not even a single figure outside.
The lights in the corridor seemed to be completely broken, and they were all pitch black, leaving only the pale light shining out of the elevator.
Gou Ming was observing the scene outside the elevator. At this time, he vaguely felt a shadow swaying through the light spot on the ground, and then a cold wind came out from somewhere and blew into the elevator.
Soon the elevator door closed and continued to move upwards.
When I arrived on the 11th floor, the elevator stopped again, but the door was opened but no one came in. After a while, the elevator continued to move up again, and the 12th floor was still the same.
Repeated and repeated until the 14th floor.
At this time, Gou Ming had already noticed something was wrong, and he felt that the temperature in the elevator suddenly dropped a lot.
The elevator door opened and Gou Ming immediately walked out.
But at this moment.
Hurry!
